Carole Burrage- Day 2

Get ready to giggle today!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Carole Burrage is not only known for her stamping talent but she's also well know for her fabulous sense of humor. I just about died laughing when I opened this particular project. When Carole asked if she could use Carolyn King's "Dr. Feelgood" stamp set, I said, "Sure!" That set is pretty cute and funny all on it's own. But I had no idea what Carole was going to do with this set!



Bwahhhhh! Too funny! (Carole actually thought I might not want to put this card up! LOL! Me? The girl who drew a toilet and a plunger. You can't scare me Carole! LOL!)

Read Carole's inspiration for this project:

Dr. Love
"I knew when I saw Carolyn King’s “Dr. Feelgood” set that I had to use it in honor of my good friend, Cammie.  Carolyn is one of my great stamping friends, and well, we love to give each other a hard time.  And, as Carolyn knows, I love to use stamps in ways they might not have been originally intended… As I was looking at the good rubber doctor, I started humming that oldie-but-goodie by KISS, “Dr. Love.”  When the muse knocks, you have to let her in, and this card was the result."

This card is just too adorable. I love Carole's "outside the box" approach and, if you ask me, I think she is an awesome artist! This card looks just like that guy!

Card details:
Dr. Love card: Stamps: Dr. Feelgood by Gina K. Designs
Paper: mauve cardstock by Bazzill, Georgia Pacific Black, Basic Black, Basic Gray, 
patterned paper by Paper Studio
Ink: Brilliance Archival Graphite Black
Accessories: Copic Sketch and Spica markers, velvet flower w/brad (unknown source), computer generated sentiment using Die Nasty free font from
www.dafont.com, Dimensionals.

I am sad to say that tomorrow is our last day with Carole and she has been a BLAST to work with! Make sure you stop back tomorrow to see Carole's final project meet this talented artist.

Hugs,
Gina K.

    I loved this card and I love Dr Feelgood. My husband calls himself a doctor. He always doles out the over the counter meds when someone is sick. He also goes by the name Dr Love. I about fell on the floor when I saw this. I gotta have this set.

      Hi Susan,
      There was a band called Kiss and they dressed up all crazy like this- mius the Dr. outfit. They had a famous song called Dr. Love and when Carole saw the Dr. stamp, that song popped into her head. So she drew on a new head for the Dr. who looks just like one of the band members from that band. (You may be too young to remember that band but us "old folks" do. LOL! They were a crazy band.

    What a hoot!! I will think of this card everytime I see the doctor set. (Not that the doctor is bad, he's a cutie) They are right you captured Gene Simmons perfectly and the song Dr Love is fitting. Carole you are a riot! Love it!

    That is so funny and a little disturbing! ;o) No really I love when someone takes a stamp out of the box and runs with it untill they can't see the box anymore.

    Not my favorite card, but then Kiss was not a band I favored either.......actually I thought they were pretty disgusting. Now the card is not disgusting just too good at reminding me of a group I don't like!

    I love the way you think outside the box Carole. You truly have a gift to be able to look at a stamp and recreate into a totally different image than what it was intended for. I love your personality and sense of humor.
    HUGS!!!
